What casino events shouldn't be missed?
All you poker fantatics need to be at the World Series of Poker tournament held at a different casino each year. Don't even think about it if you are not a pro. The competition is fierce and no regular Joes stand a chance. Most of the casinos on in Vegas prvide poker rooms for their guests who want to play some poker.
Bingo has also become popular in town and it's not just for little old ladies. Many young gamblers have fun playing bingo and even though its all about fun, there are many who take it very seriously... so watch out for the folk who carry walking sticks. :)
Horse racing, and Super Bowl action are massive in Vegas and the sports books get very busy. It is proper madness with all those numbers and bets taking place! You need a betting guide to figure it all out!
I'm new to gambling, got any gambling tips for me?
Most gamblers are not pro's so you don't need to know everything, just knowing the rules of playing and betting is a great way to start. Beginner gamblers should take advantage of free gambling lessons (online casinos have a guest player mode where you can play for free) and get some tips from other gamblers and betting sites.
Are there any other etiquette or casinos rules I should know about?
Yes, if you are not 21 or older, then you are not allowed to gamble online or in a land-based casino. Although there are many youngsters who go with their parents to Vegas and are seen walking in a casino, they are normally just walking past to go to a restaurant.
Card counting is legal, but casinos don't allow it. Have you seen the movie 21? If you have you will know what i'm writing about. Also, casinos are owned by companies or individuals and the casino is their property so they have the right to refuse entry or service to anyone. Nevada's Black Book is infamous for those that are caught cheating or have mob connection. Why? Because their names get put into this book and are never allowed back in the casinos. Also, cell/mobile phones are not allowed in casinos. Recently iPhones were banned.
What about smoking? Can I light up while I gamble?
Every casino allow smokers to smoke. Smoke-free poker rooms can be found in the Palace Station, Santa Fe Station, Texas Station, the Bellagio and Golden Nugget, and non-smoking tables are available at the Mirage.
High roller tables... Where can I go?
Las Vegas has in the few years provided high rollers with private tables to bet their money on. The Legislature changed the rules for high rollers who can now lay down massive bets. The MGM Grand has such suits for the rich and wealthy. There also are private gaming rooms at Caesars Palace and Mandalay Bay.
How to get comps for gambling?
Complimentary gambling benefits include dinner vouchers and fre accomodation. If you spend a big amount of cash at a casino or if you have stayed at a casino for a while, then you could... will get great comps. Ask the pit boss to rate you to see if you qualify for comps.
